1.Liquid lenses!
2.Note 3 because it is a beast and I would like to have one for drawing.
3.Lumia 1520 because it is Note 3's competitor, camera is even better than Xperia Z1.
4.Canon 1D C because it is a DSLR that can shoot 4K video.
5.Jolla phone. Because I want one.

So i decided to go for my first Mac(never though that would happen ).

15-inch: 2.3GHz
with Retina display
Specifications
2.3GHz quad-core Intel Core i7
Turbo Boost up to 3.5GHz
16GB 1600MHz memory
512GB PCIe-based flash storage 1
Intel Iris Pro Graphics
NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M
with 2GB GDDR5 memory
Built-in battery (8 hours)

The only thing that can stop me is the keyboard. Two questions: I'm getting it from Hong Kong. Do they have English keyboards over there?

Do apple have one year limited guarantee only in Hong Kong if its bought there or is it worldwide?

*shivers* I suggest you buy it locally and get the 3yr warranty extension, you'll probably need it. Macs are pretty bad in my experience.

I didn't buy too mµch tech last year:

Nexus 7 3g (2012)
Marantz M-CR610
Jolla

Out of the box, for me it's the Marantz. DAB, Internet radio and Spotify integration has given me hours of joy.

That's not to put the Jolla down. I find it quite impressive, and it improves with every update/addition to the Jolla store. The tohd fix has brought the device forward in leaps and bounds, and gives you a real sense of security, knowing you can use it without fear of the battery dying.

The Nexus is a nice device, but the other 2 are in front for me. I just haven't engaged with it as much.

Crikey, I just remembered I bought a few other things, but my choices stand.

Seems that a Nokia is best device 2013

This guy knows what he's talking about. The Find5 was a shockingly good device for 2013 (unlimited data on AT&T with modern hardware and no BL lock, yes plz). N1 seemed a bit of a wonky design, cool ideas but I don't expect it to take off (it's too big).

Sucks they both run android but out the door but they do have a lot of rom options.

I'd love a Jolla but they gave the US the shaft on band support and I can mostly run sailfish on the N9 for now. Actually yeah it's almost totally out of contention for now due to their insistence on secrecy and the fact it's still a beta platform. Locking the BL and giving a dumb reason over Christmas helped me to nope my way out of that situation for now.

Still wanna give BB10 a whirl even though RIM's going down the crapper.

EDIT: someone should start a worst device thread

**** Mac Bought IdeaPad Y510P 16GB for half the price . I would like to have bigger SSD disk so I can put the OS on it...but I figure I'll manage without SSD until next upgrade. Anyone have one of those? This SLI solution seems pretty ****ed up. Will be interesting
